Answer:

Length of the room should be 10.5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum area of a rectangular room is 84 square feet.

let the length of the room = x feet

Then area of the room = length × width

84 = length × 8 = 8x

Length x = 84/8 = 10.5 feet.

So the answer should be 10.5 feet

Answer:

Option 2nd is correct

10.5 feet is the longest the room can be

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Rectangle(A) is given by:

A = lw             ....[1]

where, l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle.

As per the statement:

A rectangular room must have a maximum area of 84 square feet.

⇒A = 84  square feet.

It is also given that If the room is to be 8 feet wide.

⇒ w = 8 feet

Substitute the given values in [1] we have;

84 = 8l

Divide both sides by 8 we have;

10.5 = l

or

l = 10.5 feet

Therefore, the longest the room can be 10.5 feet

Find the greatest common factor of 15x^2y^3 and -18x^3yz <br> The Answer has to be like _x_y_
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The greatest common factor of this would be 3x^2y

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, first find the greatest common factor of the coefficients. Since 3 goes in evenly to both 15 and -18, then we know that it is a common factor.

From there we need to find the number of x's. Since the first term only has 2 x's and the second has 3, we take the lowest number. (x^2)

And since the first term has 3 y's and the second has just 1, we take the lowest number (y).

Mrac [35]
To add 11% to an amount means to multiply the amount by 1.11.

You can start with $115 and multiply it by 1.11 eleven times.

A quicker way is to find 1.11^11 and then multiply by $115.

$115 * 1.11^11 = $115 * = 3.151757 = $362.45
